Find the current owner of the car. Then sell it to him. For whatever he will pay. If he wants another working key, he will be hard pressed to obtain one for less than $200, usually closer to $400, so even if he doesn't need it now, it likely has future value to him. Maybe just give it to him. And feel good.
Or....
Find the current owner of the car. Find where he services the car. Trick him into taking the car there. Bribe the technician to hook his car to the PIWIS or PST2 computer. Pray that the codes for old keys have not been deleted from his car. Offer the technician a case of fine beer to tell you only the key codes programmed into the car that do not correspond to keys in the owners possesion. Go home, sell the key with the code, and feel evil.
Or....
Make a necklace out of it. Sell it to some kid going on spring break, as pool attire. Feel evil.
Or....
Invite over your friend with a 986 to play golf. Obtain his key on some pretext. Pick a fight over something stupid. Throw your old key into the pond on the golf course. Immediately understand the depth of your friendship. And feel evil.
Seriously, you MIGHT be lucky enough that whoever serviced your car in the past wrote down the key code on the paperwork somewhere if they had to do any programming. Some do this as a courtesy, or as a precaution. Most don't. You have nothing to lose by checking.
The only other possibility is that the barely legible code printed on the non-emblem side of the key may somehow allow retrieval of the key-specific programming code, but I have no idea how. BOL
